It's not reproducible here. Do you use Gamin/inotify?
Comment 2 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-02-13 12:38:21 CET 
Any news?
Comment 3 botsie editbugs 2006-02-22 10:36:31 CET 
I use gamin. I have a more-or-less stock FC4 install. Still reproducable on
Thunar 0.2.1svn-r19974.
Comment 4 Benedikt Meurer editbugs 2006-03-01 16:25:11 CET 
Ok, it's reproducible with Gamin 0.1.7 and inotify. I dunno if it's a bug in
Gamin or inotify (I guess it's inotify), but it would take too much overhead to
work-around the bug in Thunar, esp. since Gamin/inotify would continue to emit
delete notifications, that would be ignored by Thunar, which would cause
unnecessary system load. Please file a bug to Gamin, so this gets fixed ASAP.
